12 days before our nuku (*Qb3-41 in day 261 + 64 = 325) the glyphs tell about how darkness is arriving. Ariga erua in Qb3-13 is the last glimpse of sun, it seems:
The importance of this ariga erua is underlined by the fact that it is also located in day number 313, the last day before a cycle is finished (because 314 refers to π). Also, glyph number 500 - meaning '5' (rima, 'fire') has reached its end - is located in day number 314. Double mauga glyphs reinforce this interpretation. In position 17 in the glyph line a new season is announced by vaha mea, and it is not spring. It is the time of ua (Qb3-21) - in day 317. The 'head is gone' Qb3-22 says. The numbers in the glyph line echoes the numbers of the days, but the numbers coincide only at ariga erua in Qb3-13. |
